Their First Mistake (1932)

In the comedy short Their First Mistake (1932), Ollie’s nagging wife is jealous of Ollie’s friendship with Stan, so she leaves. Stan and Ollie think that adopting a baby will get her to return, but after they get the baby home (and the wife still nowhere in sight) they don’t have a clue about how to take care of him. He won’t stop crying and the neighbors are complaining. When Stan is going to go home and leave Ollie alone to take care of the baby, there is a very funny exchange between the two of them.
